Benefits of Fastlane Cabs

Hackney carriages or Green cabs are public transport vehicles which are licensed to “ply for hire”. They can:

carry passengers for hire or reward

be hailed by prospective passengers in the street

park on a rank to await the approach of passengers

A hackney carriage must be driven by a driver who holds a hackney carriage driver’s licence.

Hackney carriage vehicles can be found at the ranks around the city and they can be hailed in the street.

These vehicles have a roof light with the word TAXI on them. They have aplate affixed to the rear and a smaller version affixed to the windscreen which carry details of the expiry date, licence number and vehicle registration.

What are benefits of using a Hackney carriage over a ‘mini-cab’:

Advertising (which a private hire firm cannot legally do)

Safety of passengers

Green cabs are allowed to go anywhere in the city and drive in bus lanes

Extra leg room

All of our cabs are 5/6 seater at no extra cost

All of our cabs are wheelchair friendly

Our prices are set by Nottingham City Council

Up to 10% discount for account customers

Fixed rate prices can be negotiated

Accessibility

All of our vehicles are capable of transporting wheelchair-using, or mobility impaired, passengers. Wheelchair-using passengers are assisted into the vehicle by the driver, using a lift or a ramp, with some newer taxis featuring side loading. The wheelchair is usually secured using a type of belt and clip combination, or wheel locks. All of our drivers are experienced, fully trained, have the relevant qualifications and are fully vetted and insured.
